Florida Men Sentenced for Production and Receipt of Child Pornography

WASHINGTON – Randy Charles Harris, 37, and Salvador Pascual Aguirre, 23, both of
Indiantown, Fla., were sentenced today in the Southern District of Florida to
serve prison sentences for their involvement in a child pornography case in
which video clips of minors engaged in sexually explicit conduct between January
2005 and June 2007 were produced, Assistant Attorney General Alice S. Fisher of
the Criminal Division and U.S. Attorney R. Alexander Acosta for the Southern
District of Florida announced today. Harris and Leonard Addison Parks, 24, also
of Indiantown, Fla., were previously charged in a superseding indictment for
conspiring to produce the illegal video clips. The superseding indictment also
charged Aguirre with receiving or attempting to receive child pornography from
Harris during that same time period.

Harris was sentenced to serve 30 years in federal prison after he pleaded guilty
on Oct. 15, 2007, to one count of using a minor engaged in sexually explicit
conduct for the purpose of producing a visual depiction of such conduct and one
count of conspiracy to use a minor engaged in sexually explicit conduct for the
purpose of producing a visual depiction of such conduct.

Aguirre, who cooperated with investigators, received a 3 year prison sentence
after he pleaded guilty on Oct. 30, 2007, to one count of attempted receipt of
child pornography.

Parks, who pleaded guilty on Oct. 30, 2007, to one count of conspiracy to use,
induce, and persuade a minor to engage in sexually explicit conduct for the
purpose of producing a visual depiction of such conduct, will be sentenced at a
later date.

The case is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Corey Steinberg and
Trial Attorney Elizabeth M. Yusi of the Child Exploitation and Obscenity Section
of the Department of Justice’s Criminal Division. The case is being
investigated by the Department of Homeland Security’s Bureau of Immigration and
Customs Enforcement and the Martin County Sheriff’s Office.
